Sydney Britt

Agnes Scott College

Sydney Britt is a Junior at Agnes Scott College where she majors in Music with a minor in Education. Sydney is a Letitia Pate Evans Scholar, Dana Scholar, and a recipient of both the Nannette Hopkins and Nora Bell Daniels awards. She currently serves as both Vice President of Ritual and Service Chair of the Gamma Eta chapter of Sigma Alpha Iota, and will be inducted into the HOASC Chapter of Mortar Board this spring. During her internship she served as a private vocal coach for over twenty students who were auditioning for All State Chorus and All State Reading Chorus. She also taught repertoire to the Beginning, Intermediate, and Advanced and Mixed choirs and facilitated private sight-reading screenings to assess student growth over the semester. These activities culminated in the opportunity to conduct the choirs in their final concert.

McKenzie Fisher

Georgia College

"The bulk of my experience has stemmed from my involvement in the leadership programs at Georgia College as well as in founding the student organization Bobcats Against Hunger. Within the leadership programs I have dived deep into the study of leadership, learning about the different practices and principles while also practicing leadership and examining my own personal strengths and weaknesses. In co-founding Bobcats Against Hunger I mobilized my peers to act on the issue of food insecurity within our surrounding community. Within the first two years we collectively raised $25,000 to package 100,000 meals. I feel prepared for what lies ahead, not only because I have gained a sound education in business marketing and leadership, but also because I have had the opportunity to master skills that go beyond the classroom through the practice I was given within my various involvements."
